It will be visible to naked eyes in December 2021. Comet A1 Leonard was discovered on 3rd January 2021 and at that time, it was about 5 astronomical units away. But now, the comet has come closer to the Earth and will be easily visible to naked eyes in December from the Northern and Southern Hemispheres. It will reach an apparent magnitude of +4 and hence can be seen through unaided eyes and even binoculars or a small telescope. Comet Leonard might reach an apparent magnitude of +1, which means it might become way brighter than predicted. The best day to see comet Leonard with naked eyes is 6 December with it will be just 5 degrees away from Bootes' brightest star, Arcturus. This video explains in detail how to see comet Leonard with naked eyes.[MEDIA=youtube]rMiLUB-skEg[/MEDIA]<hr />Top astronomical events in December 2021  December 1: Neptune ends retrograde motion December 3: Conjunction of Moon and Mars December 4: Total Solar EclipseDecember 6: Comet Leonard December 7: Venus at greatest brightness December 8-9: Moon, Jupiter, and SaturnDecember 12: Comet Leonard at perigee December 13: Comet Leonard becomes an evening object December 14: Geminid meteor shower December 17: Comet Leonard and Venus December 19: Full Moon December 21: The Winter Solstice December 22: Ursid Meteor Shower[MEDIA=youtube]pNmUkVnUSw0[/MEDIA]------ Post added on [DATETIME="UT"]1638503230[/DATETIME]</blockquote>
